[Em]I don't drink c[A]offee I take [Bm]tea my dear[Bm7]
[Em]I like my t[A]oast done on the [Bm]side[Bm7]
[Em]And you can h[A]ear it in my [Bm]accent when I [Bm7]talk
I'm an E[Em]nglishman [A]in New Y[Bm]ork[Bm7]

See me walking down Fifth Avenue
walking cane here at my side
I take it everywhere I walk
I'm an Englishman in New York
[Em]I'm an a[A]lien   [Bm]I'm a legal [Bm7]alien
I'm an E[Em]nglishman [A]in New Y[Bm]ork[Bm7]
[Em]I'm an a[A]lien   [Bm]I'm a legal [Bm7]alien
I'm an E[Em]nglishman [A]in New Y[Bm]ork[Bm7]

If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

I'm an alien   I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien   I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
[D]Modesty, propriety can l[A]ead to not[A7]oriety
[Bm]You could end[Bm7] up as the only [F#]one
G[G]entleness, sobriety are r[A]are in this society
At [Gdim]night a candle's brighter than the [Bm]sun

Takes more than combat gear to make a man
Takes more than license for a gun
Confront your enemies, avoid them when you can
gentleman will walk but never run

If "manners maketh man" as someone said
Then he's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say

I'm an alien   I'm a legal alien
I'm an Englishman in New York
I'm an alien   I'm a legal alien
